OTTAWA EDITION, JANUARY 10–24, 2015

Tips for students as graduation approaches Graduation season can be an exciting time for college students. As their time on campus draws to a close, students may be anxious to put their education to use and enter the workforce. In recent years, newly minted college graduates faced difficult job markets. But a 2017 survey from the online jobs and professional resources website CareerBuilder found that 74 percent of employers intended to hire recent college graduates that year, marking a 7 percent increase from the year prior. Recent graduates and students on the cusp of donning their caps and gowns may be entering a healthier job market than the one that greeted grads as recently as a few years ago, but grads should still take steps to bolster their chances of finding work as graduation nears.

help students as they search for jobs, internships or other opportunities. Career services staffs also may coach students on interview preparation.

use the resourCes at your Disposal

Graduates must dress the part when going on job interviews. Both men and women should purchase appropriate interview attire if they don’t already have any. Do so in advance of graduation so you aren’t caught off guard by opportunities to interview.

The final months and weeks of college are filled with distractions. In addition to final exams, students may be tempted to fill their final weeks with social engagements and extracurricular activities as they try to squeeze every last ounce of fun out of their college experiences. But students also should book appointments with their schools’ career services offices. Such offices can help students prepare their résumés. Career services offices also can

gather reFerenCes

Strong references can help students stand out in crowded job markets. Businesses typically request at least three references, none of which can be family members. Professors, current or past bosses or volunteer program supervisors who can speak to applicants’ work ethics and attitudes can make for strong references. It can take time to contact and gather information from prospective references, so students who start early won’t experience any lag time when they begin looking for work.

get reaDy to Dress the part

FinD a hoMe

Soon-to-be-graduates can help themselves by studying up on which cities boast thriving job markets and which seem to have few opportunities. Cities may have especially strong

job markets for certain majors. Students who research job markets and how geography factors into their job searching equation can then begin to develop a post-graduation housing plan. Some companies may prefer local candidates, so it might be to grads’ advantage to move to certain cities even before they’ve been offered a job. Such students can rely on temporary, part-time or seasonal employment to pay

their bills until they find full-time work in their chosen fields. Students on the cusp of graduating from college can employ various strategies as their college careers wind down to increase their chances of landing a job. ●

6 things to know about the future of work We all know the job market in Canada is changing. While some of us are nervously anticipating the future, many businesses are spending a lot of time thinking about what changes it will bring. One of those businesses is RBC, which recently published “Humans Wanted - How Canadian Youth Can Thrive in the Age of Disruption” to help define how employers should prepare by changing their hiring practices and how potential employees should prepare by adjusting their skills. Here are six of their findings.

Analytics are trending. In the 21st century, data is an employer’s greatest asset. With the flood of data now available, though, being able to make unexpected connections and identify trends is of higher importance than ever before.

FirMs want Flexibility

Math is a big plus

Digital is non-negotiable

More and more of the future jobs will rely largely on mathematics. In fact, over the next four years, 70 per cent of job openings will place significant importance on math.

Employees who are willing to learn new things will be a major draw for businesses. Nothing will stay the same for long and adapting to changes is key. Our tools may be evolving, but that doesn’t mean we don’t need to keep up. Understanding digital is a must in the workplaces of tomorrow.

the three Cs are CruCial

The report defines the three Cs as communication, collaboration and critical thinking. These used to be considered “soft skills,” but in the future, they’ll be hard and fast rules.

Mobility is a thing

Not just in how we work, but in how we plan our careers. Employees will need to think about how to evolve their professional life as the world evolves around them. ●

How to handle the ‘change’ in career change Right now, I’m surrounded by change. Several friends are moving away or having babies. My parents are downsizing from my cherished childhood home. A wonderful elderly relative has died. An adorable lost kitten has charmed his way into our hearts and our household. I’m congratulating several clever courageous clients who are starting new roles having completed our sessions over recent months.

Career change is a prime source of fear and uncertainty. It’s hard to let go, and even harder to trust that what’s coming next won’t bring you unstuck. A focus on changing autumn leaves at the heart of a weekend yoga retreat got me thinking about the impermanence of everything. Ok so it probably wasn’t ideal to be thinking so much as I moved between Downward Dog and Warrior One. However I caught myself meditating on changes of all kinds-the big scary ones like leaving

a comfortable, familiar job and the small almost imperceptible ones we often miss like nature’s seasonal flux or our partner’s new haircut. Nothing stays the same. Not the skin we walk around in, not the landscape we love or loathe, not the people we spend time with, not the work we do, not the way the world works. Although we ‘know’ this in our rational minds, we crave safety, security and understanding about what’s next. We struggle with life’s uncertainty and flux. When the jitters hit me hard just before I moved to Australia a friend offered this wise, insightful advice: ‘At the moment you are feeling rubbish because you can only see what you are leaving behind, and you can’t see what you are going to.’ Career change is a prime source of fear and uncertainty. It’s hard to let go, and even harder to trust that what’s coming next won’t bring you unstuck. This is a bit of a monkey bar experience. You’re holding a bar you know will support your weight but you can’t just hang there. You have to move on. But have you got the strength and skill to grab the next bar and will it hold you up? If the fear of career change has got you hamstrung here’s what I suggest.

What’s next?

• Focus on the things you can control. Gather as much information as you can before you leap. Begin by looking inwards. • Know your game • Ask yourself ‘who am I and what do I want?’ A lot of the work I do with clients begins with finding clear honest answers to this question. • Getting a good grip on this rung of the career change monkey bars can help you reach for the next rung more confidently. Once you know more about you, you can measure the fit of any likely looking career change decision against your skills, strengths and motivations.

SET YOUR BOUNDARIES

Firm up your ‘must haves’. These include the significant and the small practical things we overlook when we’re suspended in career change mid-air. For example, do you need to work with a particular type of manager? Can you work in an open plan office or do you need quiet private space? Do you need a work culture that supports working remotely or an active social program? Work your ‘must haves’ into your interview questions. Remember that interviews are just as much for you as they are for ‘them’. Ask if someone can walk you through the of-

fice. This will give you a sense of the ‘who’ and the ‘how’ of the place where you may be about to invest sizable chunks of your time and energy.

TEST THE WATERS

Think laterally about how you might find out what any potentially perfect role is really like. Take a deep breath and approach your career change target to ask about work shadowing or volunteering for a day. Offer coffee to someone you know a little or lot who works in a role you covet. Ask them about their average working day as well as their wider aspirations and experiences. The more we know the less change scares us.

REFRAME A FALL

Finally, I’m a fan of author Susan Jeffers’s timeless advice in ‘Feel the fear and do it anyway’. Essentially, every decision we make is an opportunity to grow and learn. Knowing this helps us handle anything that career change or change of any sort presents. So if you reach for the next rung on the monkey bar and slip, there will be something to learn from how you react to a fall and how you pick yourself up. ● By Jo Green, Career Change Coach

JULY 8–22, 2022

Why changing careers is a lot like doing a jigsaw puzzle When I was changing careers, I wanted to wake up and know exactly what to do. I wanted someone to just give me the answer – flawless and fully formed. Like most of us, I wanted an instant out from the angst and uncertainty of not knowing what to do next. Pretty quickly, I realized that my longed for lightning bolt wasn’t going to strike. I needed to create the right conditions for career change insights. I had to stop waiting expectantly for an epiphany to arrive.

JIGSAW

I recognized the need to see the small things come together, much like doing a big jigsaw puzzle. I needed to practice the twin arts of patience and pattern spotting. These are the same skills we use to piece together a jigsaw. Turning a mound of disconnected fragments into a satisfyingly complete and complex image takes time and tenacity. It also takes imagination and intuition. It’s absorbing and frustrating and fun.

START WITH THE LITTLEST LINKS

As I explored potential industries and roles, I realized that I was learning lots of little seemingly unrelated things. As they

Solving jigsaws relies equally on both these things. Sometimes you hunt long and hard to piece together a dozen disparate looking but ultimately connected bits. emerged, I ‘post–it’ noted the ‘yeses’ - my favourite skills, my hottest soapbox topics, my most energizing workplaces. I was careful not to miss even the tiniest thing that sparked my interest — like the huge buzz I get whenever people talk passionately about how connected they feel to the work they love. The standout realization from my noting was this — I was intrigued by the psychology of what makes people tick. A memorable conversation about ‘depth vs. breathe’ helped me see two things. Firstly, I wanted to work ‘in depth’ with people. Secondly, I wanted the positive impact of this work to ripple out into the wider world. Moving my post-it picture pieces around helped me spot patterns in things and plac-

es and people that inspired me. This simple process was crucial in uncovering the complete picture of what I wanted to do. Best of all, it confidently documented the steps I’d taken to get there.

REJECT THE ‘UNFIT’ BITS

Most jigsaw puzzlers spend time madly trying to cram in a piece that despite appearances, doesn’t actually fit how you think it will! Solving my career change puzzle involved dealing with a fair few of these ‘unfit’ bits. Along with all the tiny but highly connective ‘yeses’, I unearthed number of ‘noes’. Certainly there were some clear dead ends and a few slowly fizzling failures. Surprisingly though, some of my hotly anticipated ‘yeses’ turned out to be ‘nos’. I’d both loved and hated working in consumer research in my second career but never got to grips with why. However during my career change, a stint of volunteering doing research for a social enterprise showed me that while I’m fascinated by research insights into human behaviour, the actual research process is just not my thing. This was a fruitful insight. The flip side of this particular ‘no’ revealed a crucial corner piece of my jigsaw and helped to point me

towards careers looking at human behaviour (career change coaching being one of them.)

USE LOGIC AND INTUITION

Solving jigsaws relies equally on both these things. Sometimes you hunt long and hard to piece together a dozen disparate looking but ultimately connected bits. Other times, your eye is instantly drawn to that elusive crucial piece. Managing a career change is very much the same. You’ll need endurance and patience for the painstaking process of trial and error. You’ll need logic for the careful sorting of the ‘yeses’ and the ‘noes’. You’ll also need confidence and courage to trust in serendipitous insights and make apparently random connections that work like a charm.

FIND FRESH EYES

Having someone else spot the ‘missing piece’ in your jigsaw can ‘unstick’ a section that’s held you up for weeks. While lots of us prefer the satisfaction of solving puzzles unaided, sometimes the right help at the right moment can be a fine thing ● – Jo Green is a career change coach who helps people who don’t like their jobfigure out what to do instead!
